The STIHL FSA 200 R is the most powerful battery-powered brushcutter from STIHL. Designed for professionals working in landscaping and grounds maintenance, it’s powerful enough to take on the toughest mowing, clearing and scrub cutting jobs. The FSA 200 R is battery powered – meaning it has low noise emissions, making it ideal for use in noise sensitive areas such as at hospitals, schools and housing estates.
Fitted with a new style loop handle that has a quick-mounting system, meaning you can adjust the handle to your height for an ergonomic working position. This handle also makes mowing on slopes or uneven terrains even easier! The FSA 200 R has a powerful EC motor and speed-adjustment on the control handle, which can be set at 3 different speed levels depending on the type of work you are doing. Plus, there is an energy saving mode on the handle too for when your battery is low on energy.
The air filter on the housing ensures that the engine is kept cool during work, improving the service life of the brushcutter. It’s easy to remove and clean too. The FSA 200 R comes with the AutoCut C 26-2 as standard but can also be fitted with other STIHL cutting tools, such as the TrimCut, DuroCut, PolyCut, GrassCut, BrushCut and WoodCut cutting tools. It also has a mounting point for the STIHL Smart Connector 2 A on the power tool housing.
Loop handle with bar
FOR SAFE WORK IN SMALL SPACES. The loop handle ensures good manoeuvrability of your tool, even in confined spaces. The bar protects you by ensuring your feet and legs cannot come too close to blades or mowing heads during work.
STIHL Anti-Vibration System
FOR MORE PLEASANT WORK. Vibrations can occur when you put your tools through their paces, and these are particularly noticeable in the grip area. The buffer and spring elements of the STIHL anti-vibration system reduce the transmission of engine vibrations to the handle area and therefore to your body. The result is that your tool is more comfortable to hold and your work is much less tiring.
Battery compartment in the engine casing
DIRECT POWER SUPPLY TO THE tool. With this tool, you can insert the required battery from the STIHL AP System directly into the engine housing. This increases your mobility and flexibility when working.
Connectivity (Ready)
COMPATIBLE WITH THE SMART CONNECTOR 2A. You can mount a Smart Connector 2 A in the housing of the power tool at the dedicated position. Once installed, this connects to the control unit and transmits valuable power tool data to your smartphone, tablet or the STIHL connected Box that is within range. You can use the STIHL connected App and the STIHL connected Portal to view the STIHL connected gathered data and benefit from additional functions.
